'Carlisle called while you were waking Renesmee,' he said, 'He told me that Alice saw that whoever it is murdering the people in Forks is...is...’ didn't finish his sentence.
'Is what Edward?' I said, irritated. I hated getting angry with him, but after everything that had happened during my life, I worried easily.
'They’re after us.'
'What? What have we done? Did Alice see who it was?' Edward shook his head.
'We haven't done anything, this attack is uncalled for, and no, she only saw us in trouble.'
'Is...is this about Renesmee?' I muttered under my breath.
'We don't know, all we know is that Esme, Emmett, Alice, Jasper, Rosalie, the wolves, without Jacob, and myself were there.' he said.
'Well, where were Jacob, Renesmee, Carlisle and I?' I asked. He shrugged, his head still facing down.
'She only saw a caption, whoever it is can find holes in her visions, they know about her, possibly all of us, there's no way of knowing when they're coming, that is why we have to move, soon.'
'Where are we moving?' I asked,
'Carlisle was thinking the reservation, but we'd have to get permission from Jacob, he thinks that the wolves would be a help in destroying whoever it is, and protecting you and Renesmee.'
'Edward, I don't need protecting, Emmett taught me, I can fight.' I protested, but he grimaced and shook his head.
'You're not fighting Bella; I can't let you get hurt.'
'Edward, I won't get hurt! I am fighting.' I got up from the chair then walked to the walk in wardrobe. I threw on a t-shirt and a pair of sweats, knowing Alice would kill me.
'Mom, Dad?' I heard through the bedroom door, 'I'm going to Jake's, I'll see you later!'
'Bye honey!' I shouted back, hearing her shut the front door. Edward was staring at me when I walked out. His eyes were black; I expected mine to be the same. We hadn't hunted in a month; we'd have to go sometime today.
'We're going to the big house; we need to talk to the others.' Edward said, I said nodded, then put on a pair of trainers. We ran hand in hand to the big house.
When we arrived there, everyone was gathered on the sofas in the lounge area. Alice explained her vision to us, although I could see that it upset her to see her family in danger.
'Well this is just great,' Rosalie exclaimed, 'first we get kicked out of our home because of some invisible mass murderer, and then we have to go and live in a town full of awful smelling dogs!' She then got up and stormed out of the room.
'Rose! Rose!' Emmett followed her.
'I'll call Jacob,' I said, then dialled his number into my cell. It rang a few times, but then went to his answer machine.
'Hey it's Jacob Black, I can't come to the phone right now, so leave a message!'
'Hey Jake, its Bella, give me a call when you get this.' then I put the phone down. I wondered where he was, he usually answered, unless he was out with the pack, but he was with Renesmee, so he wouldn't be out. That was strange. I just left it and began speaking to Alice. She was mainly lecturing me about my choice of clothing for that day.
'Seriously Bella, I might as well set your clothes out for you, then lock your closet!' she exclaimed, then began talking about the colours we should have the new house. She thought plum colours and reds. I wasn't really interested, but I listened anyway, since there was nothing else to do. Then my phone started ringing, it was Jake.
'Hey Jake, what’s up?'
'Hey Bells, sorry I didn't pick up earlier, I was...busy,' I heard Nessie giggle in the background. 'So, what did you want?'
'Oh, um...yeah, I was wondering if we could come over to yours, we need to talk to you,'
‘Sure, see you in 5!' Jacob said then hung up. I shut the phone and put it in my pocket.
Alice and Carlisle tagged along; Alice insisted that as she was the main source to our information, she'd have to come with us.
We ran to Jacob's house, since it was quicker than driving. Jacob had moved to a bigger house since his father Billy Black had died aged 80.
When we arrived, Renesmee answered the door.
'Hey guys!' She said and hugged us all in turn. We walked in and I went over to hug Jacob. As I sat down, I noticed something. It was something very strange. The house was clean. Usually, there was empty bowls, cups, plates, crisp packets, mouldy food, and there was an odd smell, besides the smell of wet dog, that I could never put my finger onto what it was. But, the house was tidy, free of plates, and it smelled kind of fresh!
'Wow Jake, you really cleaned the place up!' Alice smiled.
'Well, it was Nessie,' he said, kissing her cheek. She blushed and smiled.
'It's a shame you can't do this with your own bedroom...' I hinted, but I think she purposefully ignored me. Carlisle cleared his throat and Alice began explaining her vision.
'Jacob, we would like your permission to live here, on the reservation.' Carlisle asked. Jacob smiled my Jacob's smile.
'Well?' Edward asked.
'I'm sure that would be fine,' he said, 'but where are the 9 of you planning on living?' I looked at Edward.
'There's an abandoned house near the sea,' Edward said 'Esme has taken a look at it and said that she could fix it up for us.' Jacob looked confused,
'You mean the house that's being built on?'
'My wife likes to get a head start on things. She can be a little impatient.' Carlisle laughed.
'Mom, I'm thirsty, can we go hunting?' Renesmee asked me. I agreed. Alice and Carlisle left, saying we should go as a family, so Edward, Jacob, Renesmee and I went hunting together. As we reached the forest, I suddenly felt as if we were being watched. Edward froze and looked up. Renesmee grabbed onto Jacob's fur. The figure was standing in the clearing, staring down at us. I could smell 11 elk, and my throat was burning, but the figure was coming towards us. Edward had obviously read his mind. His face turned from panic to calmness as the figure got closer. Renesmee saw this and loosened her grip on Jacob's russet fur. I pulled my mouth away from my teeth when I saw who it was. He looked surprised to see us too. When he reached us, he opened his mouth.
'Bella? Edward?' he asked, his eyes open in shock.
'Mike?'
